“Wife, you’re here.” Song Jingyun’s face brightened significantly upon seeing Jiang Mixia, walking over quickly.
“Here to pick you up.” Jiang Mixia smiled gently, but upon noticing Song Jingyun’s unusual expression, she furrowed her brows slightly. “Your complexion doesn’t look good. Are you feeling unwell again?”
Song Jingyun obediently nodded, “Mm.”
That “Mm” carried a sense of grievance, even tinged with a hint of playfulness.
“Don’t have appetite?” Jiang Mixia looked at Song Jingyun with amusement, her head cocked to the side.
“I might have no appetite, but seeing your darling enjoy makes me regain it.” Song Jingyun realized his slip of the tongue immediately.
Cheesy pickup line!
Jiang Mixia reached out and playfully ruffled Song Jingyun’s hair, “It’s okay. I brought you fried sesame leaves, pork jerky, and candied fruit. You can have some.”
Despite having a poor appetite, everything tasted like wax, lacking flavor. However, the crispy and fragrant fried sesame leaves provided a satisfying crunch, even if the aroma wasn’t discernible. The crispy texture was comforting.
The sweet and spicy pork jerky provided a chewy and flavorful experience, stimulating the taste buds and promoting digestion, increasing appetite.
As for the sweet and tangy candied fruit, it was Song Jingyun’s favorite, and consuming some would likely help restore appetite quickly.
This was Jiang Mixia’s plan, hence her decision to bring these three snacks to meet Song Jingyun.
Song Jingyun naturally understood Jiang Mixia’s intention, a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. “Thank you, wife.”
Even in such trivial matters, my beloved plans meticulously and thoroughly; she is the most caring!
Song Jingyun took Jiang Mixia’s hand, cradling the snacks wrapped in oil paper, and started walking back. “You’ve waited outside for me for so long. You must be tired. Let’s go back, rest for a while, and then enjoy a nice dinner together!”
Jiang Mixia Smiled, after all, watching one’s beloved enjoy a meal is truly delightful!
Meanwhile, the Crown Prince felt a hint of irritation, one hand resting in front of him.
As he watched Song Jinyun and Jiang Mixia, the married couple, head towards Splendorous Garden, the Crown Prince couldn’t help but touch his chin thoughtfully.
“Jealous?” Jiang Junli teased from the side.
“Talking about yourself?” The Crown Prince glanced at Jiang Junli.
The Crown Prince is fond of the idea of external destiny, which is somewhat related to this matter.
“Your mind is dedicated to the country, thinking only of state affairs. Have you truly no thoughts of love and romance? As for the other Prince at the age of marriage, the Empress is already arranging his marriage. Perhaps the Crown Prince has lost his beloved?”
Jiang Junli truly became even more eloquent.
Their marital relationship was indeed quite complicated.
Even my mother, the Empress, is quite keen on this marriage arrangement. I truly have no affection for the woman in question, who lacks the qualifications to become the Crown Prince’s consort in terms of lineage, appearance, and character.
However, the Emperor had a subdued response, emphasizing the importance of finding a woman worthy of the position of Crown Prince’s consort based on birth and character, not just appearances.
